Abstract

The implementation of image processing engines in visual sensor nodes has been a major concern in the development of wireless multimedia sensor networks in a hardware constrained environment. In this paper, a review on eight popular image compression algorithms is presented. After conducting a comprehensive evaluation, it is found that Set-Partitioning in Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) wavelet-based image compression is the most suitable hardware implemented image compression algorithm in wireless sensor networks due to its high compression efficiency and its simplicity in coding procedures.
